arm64: Expose AIDR_EL1 via sysfs
The KVM PV ABI recently added a feature that allows the VM to discover
the set of physical CPU implementations, identified by a tuple of
{MIDR_EL1, REVIDR_EL1, AIDR_EL1}. Unlike other KVM PV features, the
expectation is that the VMM implements the hypercall instead of KVM as
it has the authoritative view of where the VM gets scheduled.
To do this the VMM needs to know the values of these registers on any
CPU in the system. While MIDR_EL1 and REVIDR_EL1 are already exposed,
AIDR_EL1 is not. Provide it in sysfs along with the other identification
registers.

arm64/fpsimd: signal: Clear TPIDR2 when delivering signals
Linux is intended to be compatible with userspace written to Arm's
AAPCS64 procedure call standard [1,2]. For the Scalable Matrix Extension
(SME), AAPCS64 was extended with a "ZA lazy saving scheme", where SME's
ZA tile is lazily callee-saved and caller-restored. In this scheme,
TPIDR2_EL0 indicates whether the ZA tile is live or has been saved by
pointing to a "TPIDR2 block" in memory, which has a "za_save_buffer"
pointer. This scheme has been implemented in GCC and LLVM, with
necessary runtime support implemented in glibc.
AAPCS64 does not specify how the ZA lazy saving scheme is expected to
interact with signal handling, and the behaviour that AAPCS64 currently
recommends for (sig)setjmp() and (sig)longjmp() does not always compose
safely with signal handling, as explained below.
When Linux delivers a signal, it creates signal frames which contain the
original values of PSTATE.ZA, the ZA tile, and TPIDR_EL2. Between saving
the original state and entering the signal handler, Linux clears
PSTATE.ZA, but leaves TPIDR2_EL0 unchanged. Consequently a signal
handler can be entered with PSTATE.ZA=0 (meaning accesses to ZA will
trap), while TPIDR_EL0 is non-null (which may indicate that ZA needs to
be lazily saved, depending on the contents of the TPIDR2 block). While
in this state, libc and/or compiler runtime code, such as longjmp(), may
attempt to save ZA. As PSTATE.ZA=0, these accesses will trap, causing
the kernel to inject a SIGILL. Note that by virtue of lazy saving
occurring in libc and/or C runtime code, this can be triggered by
application/library code which is unaware of SME.
To avoid the problem above, the kernel must ensure that signal handlers
are entered with PSTATE.ZA and TPIDR2_EL0 configured in a manner which
complies with the ZA lazy saving scheme. Practically speaking, the only
choice is to enter signal handlers with PSTATE.ZA=0 and TPIDR2_EL0=NULL.
This change should not impact SME code which does not follow the ZA lazy
saving scheme (and hence does not use TPIDR2_EL0).
An alternative approach that was considered is to have the signal
handler inherit the original values of both PSTATE.ZA and TPIDR2_EL0,
relying on lazy save/restore sequences being idempotent and capable of
racing safely. This is not safe as signal handlers must be assumed to
have a "private ZA" interface, and therefore cannot be entered with
PSTATE.ZA=1 and TPIDR2_EL0=NULL, but it is legitimate for signals to be
taken from this state.
With the kernel fixed to clear TPIDR2_EL0, there are a couple of
remaining issues (largely masked by the first issue) that must be fixed
in userspace:
(1) When a (sig)setjmp() + (sig)longjmp() pair cross a signal boundary,
ZA state may be discarded when it needs to be preserved.
Currently, the ZA lazy saving scheme recommends that setjmp() does
not save ZA, and recommends that longjmp() is responsible for saving
ZA. A call to longjmp() in a signal handler will not have visibility
of ZA state that existed prior to entry to the signal, and when a
longjmp() is used to bypass a usual signal return, unsaved ZA state
will be discarded erroneously.
To fix this, it is necessary for setjmp() to eagerly save ZA state,
and for longjmp() to configure PSTATE.ZA=0 and TPIDR2_EL0=NULL. This
works regardless of whether a signal boundary is crossed.
(2) When a C++ exception is thrown and crosses a signal boundary before
it is caught, ZA state may be discarded when it needs to be
preserved.
AAPCS64 requires that exception handlers are entered with
PSTATE.{SM,ZA}={0,0} and TPIDR2_EL0=NULL, with exception unwind code
expected to perform any necessary save of ZA state.
Where it is necessary to perform an exception unwind across an
exception boundary, the unwind code must recover any necessary ZA
state (along with TPIDR2) from signal frames.
Fix the kernel as described above, with setup_return() clearing
TPIDR2_EL0 when delivering a signal. Folk on CC are working on fixes for
the remaining userspace issues, including updates/fixes to the AAPCS64
specification and glibc.

OpenRISC updates for 6.15
This is a bit late as I was on holiday, but as there are no huge
structural changes I hope it's OK to include mid release cycle.
- Support for cacheinfo API to expose OpenRISC cache info via sysfs,
this also translated to some cleanups to OpenRISC cache flush and
invalidate API's
- Documentation updates for new mailing list and toolchain binaries

- The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses. This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect. - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed. - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained. - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The 27 patch series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The 19 patch series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The 12 patch series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations.

Networking changes for 6.15.
Core & protocols
----------------
- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls).
- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.
- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked)
in BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.
- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.
- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.
- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream performance
up to 2x.
- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching
for an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock.
Bring an additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.
- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.
- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.
- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.
- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles.
There are up to 4 namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns
pointer arguments, interpreted differently based on context.
- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.
- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout
in TCP.
- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.
- Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.
- Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP
sockets.
- Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin users.
- Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack.
- Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols
which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a module.
- Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar
to normal bridging.
- Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels.
- netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name
to messages as metadata
Driver API

Updates for interrupt chip drivers:
- Support for hard indices on RISC-V. The hart index identifies a hart
(core) within a specific interrupt domain in RISC-V's Priviledged
Architecture.
- Rework of the RISC-V MSI driver.
This moves the driver over to the generic MSI library and solves the
affinity problem of unmaskable PCI/MSI controllers. Unmaskable PCI/MSI
controllers are prone to lose interrupts when the MSI message is
updated to change the affinity because the message write consists of
three 32-bit subsequent writes, which update address and data. As these
writes are non-atomic versus the device raising an interrupt, the
device can observe a half written update and issue an interrupt on the
wrong vector. This is mitiated by a carefully orchestrated step by step
update and the observation of an eventually pending interrupt on the
CPU which issues the update. The algorithm follows the well established
method of the X86 MSI driver.
- A new driver for the RISC-V Sophgo SG2042 MSI controller
- Overhaul of the Renesas RZQ2L driver.
Simplification of the probe function by using devm_*() mechanisms,
which avoid the endless list of error prone gotos in the failure paths.
- Expand the Renesas RZV2H driver to support RZ/G3E SoCs
- A workaround for Rockchip 3568002 erratum in the GIC-V3 driver to
ensure that the addressing is limited to the lower 32-bit of the
physical address space.
- Add support for the Allwinner AS23 NMI controller
- Expand the IMX irqsteer driver to handle up to 960 input interrupts
- The usual small updates, cleanups and device tree changes.

It has been a reasonably busy cycle for docs...
- Significant changes throughout the tree to bring Python code up to
current standards and raise the minimum Python required to 3.9. Much of
this is preparatory to replacing the ancient Perl scripts/kernel-doc
horror with a slightly less horrifying Python implementation, expected
for 6.16.
- Update the minimum Sphinx required to 3.4.3, allowing us to remove a
bunch of older compatibility code.
- Rework and improve the generation of the ABI documentation.
(All of the above done by Mauro)
- Lots of translation updates. Alex Shi and Yanteng Si are taking on
responsibility for the Chinese translations going forward; that work will
still get to you via docs-next
- Try to standardize the format for indicating a developer's affiliation in
commit tags.
- Clarify the TAB's role in CoC enforcement actions.
- Try to spell out the rules for when a commit tag can name another
developer without their explicit permission.
Plus lots of other typo fixes and updates.

arm64/boot: Enable EL2 requirements for FEAT_PMUv3p9
FEAT_PMUv3p9 registers such as PMICNTR_EL0, PMICFILTR_EL0, and PMUACR_EL1 access from EL1 requires appropriate EL2 fine grained trap configuration via FEAT_FGT2 based trap control registers HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2. Otherwise such register accesses will result in traps into EL2. Add a new helper __init_el2_fgt2() which initializes FEAT_FGT2 based fine grained trap control registers HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2 (setting the bits nPMICNTR_EL0, nPMICFILTR_EL0 and nPMUACR_EL1) to enable access into PMICNTR_EL0, PMICFILTR_EL0, and PMUACR_EL1 registers. Also update booting.rst with SCR_EL3.FGTEn2 requirement for all FEAT_FGT2 based registers to be accessible in EL2.

x86/mm: Remove CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G support
HIGHMEM64G support was added in linux-2.3.25 to support (then) high-end Pentium Pro and Pentium III Xeon servers with more than 4GB of addressing, NUMA and PCI-X slots started appearing. I have found no evidence of this ever being used in regular dual-socket servers or consumer devices, all the users seem obsolete these days, even by i386 standards: - Support for NUMA servers (NUMA-Q, IBM x440, unisys) was already removed ten years ago. - 4+ socket non-NUMA servers based on Intel 450GX/450NX, HP F8 and ServerWorks ServerSet/GrandChampion could theoretically still work with 8GB, but these were exceptionally rare even 20 years ago and would have usually been equipped with than the maximum amount of RAM. - Some SKUs of the Celeron D from 2004 had 64-bit mode fused off but could still work in a Socket 775 mainboard designed for the later Core 2 Duo and 8GB. Apparently most BIOSes at the time only allowed 64-bit CPUs. - The rare Xeon LV "Sossaman" came on a few motherboards with registered DDR2 memory support up to 16GB. - In the early days of x86-64 hardware, there was sometimes the need to run a 32-bit kernel to work around bugs in the hardware drivers, or in the syscall emulation for 32-bit userspace. This likely still works but there should never be a need for this any more. PAE mode is still required to get access to the 'NX' bit on Atom 'Pentium M' and 'Core Duo' CPUs.

irqchip/gic-v3: Add Rockchip 3568002 erratum workaround
Rockchip RK3566/RK3568 GIC600 integration has DDR addressing limited to the first 32bit of physical address space. Rockchip assigned Erratum ID #3568002 for this issue. Add driver quirk for this Rockchip GIC Erratum. Note, that the 0x0201743b GIC600 ID is not Rockchip-specific and is common for many ARM GICv3 implementations. Hence, there is an extra of_machine_is_compatible() check.

s390/net: Remove LCS driver
The original Open Systems Adapter (OSA) was introduced by IBM in the mid-90s. These were then superseded by OSA-Express in 1999 which used Queued Direct IO to greatly improve throughput. The newer cards retained the older, slower non-QDIO (OSE) modes for compatibility with older systems. In Linux, the lcs driver was responsible for cards operating in the older OSE mode and the qeth driver was introduced to allow the OSA-Express cards to operate in the newer QDIO (OSD) mode. For an S390 machine from 1998 or later, there is no reason to use the OSE mode and lcs driver as all OSA cards since 1999 provide the faster OSD mode. As a result, it's been years since we have heard of a customer configuration involving the lcs driver. This patch removes the lcs driver. The technology it supports has been obsolete for past 25+ years and is irrelevant for current use cases.

Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never execute
relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled by smpboot
code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is
a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and can't
run anywhere else. The affinity is set through kthread_bind_mask()
and the subsystem takes care by itself to handle CPU-hotplug
operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node. This
is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in terms of
memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this category.
The affinity is set manually like for any other task and CPU-hotplug
is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so that the task
is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the node comes up.
Also care should be taken so that the node affinity doesn't cross
isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its own
ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following API
changes:
_ kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread to
its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called right
after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred affinity
different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine
to the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the
time or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:

Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker:
"Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never
execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled
by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations.
Affinity here is a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and
can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through
kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to
handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a
correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node.
This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in
terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this
category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and
CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so
that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the
node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity
doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its
own ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following
API changes:
- kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread
to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called
right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred
affinity different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to
the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time
or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:
- Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of
kthread_run_on_cpu()
- Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last
resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware
- Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always
called before the first kthread wake up.
- Default affine kthread to its preferred node.
- Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc
affinity implementation
- Implement kthreads preferred affinity
- Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style
- Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity
implementation"

Merge patch series "riscv: Add support for xtheadvector"
Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> says:
xtheadvector is a custom extension that is based upon riscv vector
version 0.7.1 [1]. All of the vector routines have been modified to
support this alternative vector version based upon whether xtheadvector
was determined to be supported at boot.
vlenb is not supported on the existing xtheadvector hardware, so a
devicetree property thead,vlenb is added to provide the vlenb to Linux.
There is a new hwprobe key RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_VENDOR_EXT_THEAD_0 that is
used to request which thead vendor extensions are supported on the
current platform. This allows future vendors to allocate hwprobe keys
for their vendor.
Support for xtheadvector is also added to the vector kselftests.

Documentation: Fix x86_64 UEFI outdated references to elilo
Problem: The x86_64 UEFI doc references Elilo which is an unmaintained/orphaned bootloader project. Also, on x86_64 a bootloader is technically not actually required since there is support for the Linux EFI stub. Solution: Remove the references to Elilo from the doc and refer to the EFI stub doc page, update steps accordingly, and add more details about creation of the EFI partition to improve clarity.

Documentation: arm64: Remove stale and redundant virtual memory diagrams
The arm64 'memory.rst' file tries to document the virtual memory map and the translation procedure for a couple of kernel configurations. Unfortunately, the virtual memory map changes relatively frequently and we support considerably more configurations than we did when the docs were introduced (e.g. we now have support for 16KiB pages and 52-bit addressing). Furthermore, the Arm ARM is the definitive resource for the translation procedure and so there's little point in duplicating part of that information in the kernel documentation. Rather than continue trying (and failing) to maintain these diagrams, let's rip them out. The kernel page-table can be dumped using CONFIG_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS if necesssary.

arm64: Exclude nohz_full CPUs from 32bits el0 support
Nohz full CPUs are not a desirable fallback target to run 32bits el0 applications. If present, prefer a set of housekeeping CPUs that can do the job instead. Otherwise just don't support el0 32 bits. Should the need arise, appropriate support can be introduced in the future.

arm64/hwcap: Describe 2024 dpISA extensions to userspace
The 2024 dpISA introduces a number of architecture features all of which only add new instructions so only require the addition of hwcaps and ID register visibility.

arm64: Filter out SVE hwcaps when FEAT_SVE isn't implemented
The hwcaps code that exposes SVE features to userspace only
considers ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1, while this is only valid when
ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE advertises that SVE is actually supported.
The expectations are that when ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE is 0, the
ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 register is also 0. So far, so good.
Things become a bit more interesting if the HW implements SME.
In this case, a few ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 fields indicate *SME*
features. And these fields overlap with their SVE interpretations.
But the architecture says that the SME and SVE feature sets must
match, so we're still hunky-dory.
This goes wrong if the HW implements SME, but not SVE. In this
case, we end-up advertising some SVE features to userspace, even
if the HW has none. That's because we never consider whether SVE
is actually implemented. Oh well.
Fix it by restricting all SVE capabilities to ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.SVE
being non-zero. The HWCAPS documentation is amended to reflect the
actually checks performed by the kernel.

iommu/arm-smmu: Re-enable context caching in smmu reset operation
Default MMU-500 reset operation disables context caching in prefetch buffer. It is however expected for context banks using the ACTLR register to retain their prefetch value during reset and runtime suspend. Add config 'ARM_SMMU_MMU_500_CPRE_ERRATA' to gate this errata workaround in default MMU-500 reset operation which defaults to 'Y' and provide option to disable workaround for context caching in prefetch buffer as and when needed.

x86/Documentation: Update algo in init_size description of boot protocol
The init_size description of boot protocol has an example of the runtime start address for the compressed bzImage. For non-relocatable kernel it relies on the pref_address value (if not 0), but for relocatable case only pays respect to the load_addres and kernel_alignment, and it is inaccurate for the latter. Boot loader must consider the pref_address as the Linux kernel relocates to it before being decompressed as nicely described in this commit message a year ago: |

9f16d5e6f2 |
The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had, of
essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages. The reason to
do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted pages (for example
BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP VMAs that contain
refcounted pages. However, the result was security issues in the past,
and more recently the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory
that _is_ backed by struct page but is not refcounted. In particular
this broke virtio-gpu blob resources (which directly map host graphics
buffers into the guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the
amdgpu driver, because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages
and the tail pages could not be mapped into KVM.
This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the per-architecture
code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible. The large series that
did this, from David Stevens and Sean Christopherson, also cleaned up
substantially the set of functions that provided arch code with the
pfn for a host virtual addresses. The previous maze of twisty little
passages, all different, is replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page,
__kvm_faultin_pfn, the non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages)
saving almost 200 lines of code.
ARM:
* Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
* Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This call
was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request hibernation,
similar to the S4 state in ACPI
* Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
* PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
* Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
* Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested synchronous
external abort injection
* Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests
LoongArch:
* Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel.
* Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.
* Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip.
PPC:
* Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which was
removed 10 years ago.
* Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls
RISC-V:
* Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest
* Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side
s390:
* New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks
* Support for the gen17 CPU model
* List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the documentation
x86:
* Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code, improve
documentation, harden against unexpected changes. Even if the hardware
A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to use the hardware-defined A/D
bits to track if a PFN is Accessed and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot
of special cases.
* Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in x86's
primary MMU for over 10 years.
* Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging is
toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page is
re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter.
* Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This reduces
the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x.
* Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow page
tables in low-memory situations.
* Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
* Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest
* Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs to
their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM creating
invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to a non-zero
value results in the vCPU having invalid state if userspace hides PDCM
from the guest, which in turn can lead to save/restore failures.
* Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support LA57
to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the actual
behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and descriptor
table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on whether the CPU
supports LA57.
* Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(), as
filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden the
cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring in the
future. The issue that triggered this change was already fixed in 6.12,
but was still kinda latent.
* Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where KVM
over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor VMs.
* Minor cleanups
* Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task. These kthreads can
consume significant amounts of CPU time on behalf of a VM or in response
to how the VM behaves (for example how it accesses its memory); therefore
KVM tried to place the thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU
time consumed by that work to the VM's container. However the kthreads
did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore cgroups which had KVM

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had of
essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages.
The reason to do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted
pages (for example BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP
VMAs that contain refcounted pages.
However, the result was security issues in the past, and more recently
the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory that _is_ backed by
struct page but is not refcounted. In particular this broke virtio-gpu
blob resources (which directly map host graphics buffers into the
guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the amdgpu driver,
because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages and the tail
pages could not be mapped into KVM.
This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the
per-architecture code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible.
The large series that did this, from David Stevens and Sean
Christopherson, also cleaned up substantially the set of functions
that provided arch code with the pfn for a host virtual addresses.
The previous maze of twisty little passages, all different, is
replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page, __kvm_faultin_pfn, the
non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages) saving almost
200 lines of code.
ARM:
- Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
- Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This
call was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request
hibernation, similar to the S4 state in ACPI
- Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
- PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
- Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
- Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested
synchronous external abort injection
- Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests
LoongArch:
- Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel.
- Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.
- Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip.
PPC:
- Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which
was removed 10 years ago.
- Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls
RISC-V:
- Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest
- Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side
s390:
- New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks
- Support for the gen17 CPU model
- List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the
documentation
x86:
- Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code,
improve documentation, harden against unexpected changes.
Even if the hardware A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to
use the hardware-defined A/D bits to track if a PFN is Accessed
and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot of special cases.
- Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in
x86's primary MMU for over 10 years.
- Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging
is toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page
is re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter.
- Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This
reduces the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x.
- Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow
page tables in low-memory situations.
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to
MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
- Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest
- Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs
to their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM
creating invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to
a non-zero value results in the vCPU having invalid state if
userspace hides PDCM from the guest, which in turn can lead to
save/restore failures.
- Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support
LA57 to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the
actual behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and
descriptor table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on
whether the CPU supports LA57.
- Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(),
as filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden
the cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring
in the future. The issue that triggered this change was already
fixed in 6.12, but was still kinda latent.
- Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where
KVM over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor
VMs.
- Minor cleanups
- Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task.
These kthreads can consume significant amounts of CPU time on
behalf of a VM or in response to how the VM behaves (for example
how it accesses its memory); therefore KVM tried to place the
thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU time consumed by that
work to the VM's container.
However the kthreads did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore
cgroups which had KVM instances inside could not complete freezing.
Fix this by replacing the kthread with a PF_USER_WORKER thread, via
the vhost_task abstraction. Another 100+ lines removed, with
generally better behavior too like having these threads properly
parented in the process tree.
- Revert a workaround for an old CPU erratum (Nehalem/Westmere) that
didn't really work; there was really nothing to work around anyway:
the broken patch was meant to fix nested virtualization, but the
PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR is virtualized and therefore unaffected by the
erratum.
- Fix 6.12 regression where CONFIG_KVM will be built as a module even
if asked to be builtin, as long as neither KVM_INTEL nor KVM_AMD is
'y'.
x86 selftests:
- x86 selftests can now use AVX.
Documentation:
- Use rST internal links
- Reorganize the introduction to the API document
Generic:
- Protect vcpu->pid accesses outside of vcpu->mutex with a rwlock
instead of RCU, so that running a vCPU on a different task doesn't
encounter long due to having to wait for all CPUs become quiescent.
In general both reads and writes are rare, but userspace that

irqchip/loongson-eiointc: Add virt extension support
Interrupts can be routed to maximal four virtual CPUs with real HW EIOINTC interrupt controller model, since interrupt routing is encoded with CPU bitmap and EIOINTC node combined method. Here add the EIOINTC virt extension support so that interrupts can be routed to 256 vCPUs in virtual machine mode. CPU bitmap is replaced with normal encoding and EIOINTC node type is removed, so there are 8 bits for cpu selection, at most 256 vCPUs are supported for interrupt routing.

arm64/ptrace: Clarify documentation of VL configuration via ptrace
When we configure SVE, SSVE or ZA via ptrace we allow the user to configure the vector length and specify any of the flags that are accepted when configuring via prctl(). This includes the S[VM]E_SET_VL_ONEXEC flag which defers the configuration of the VL until an exec(). We don't do anything to limit the provision of register data as part of configuring the _ONEXEC VL but as a function of the VL enumeration support we do this will be interpreted using the vector length currently configured for the process. This is all a bit surprising, and probably we should just not have allowed register data to be specified with _ONEXEC, but it's our ABI so let's add some explicit documentation in both the ABI documents and the source calling out what happens. The comments are also missing the fact that since SME does not have a mandatory 128 bit VL it is possible for VL enumeration to result in the configuration of a higher VL than was requested, cover that too.

arm64/gcs: Fix outdated ptrace documentation
The ptrace documentation for GCS was written prior to the implementation of
clone3() when we still blocked enabling of GCS via ptrace. This restriction
was relaxed as part of implementing clone3() support since we implemented
support for the GCS not being managed by the kernel but the documentation
still mentions the restriction. Update the documentation to reflect what
was merged.
We have not yet merged clone3() itself but all the support other than in
clone() itself is there.
Fixes:
